' EGG-BEATER HOLDER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

racemes April 10, 1900.

1'0 all, whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, EnNEsr LEON PER- sonsfof West Concord, in the county of Merrimack and State of New Hampshire, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Egg-Beater Holders, of which the following is a specification.

This invention has for its object to provide means for firmly securing an egg-beater in a suitable position above a shelf or table to act on the contents of a bowl resting on the table without the necessity of being supported by the operator s hand.

The invention consists in the improvements which I will now proceed to describe and claim.

Of the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 re resents a side elevat on of the egg-beater ho der embodying my invention. Fig. 2 represents a tip view showing-I; portions of the standard and a justable arm IGI'GlHBIlJBFI'GfGI'IBd to. Fig. 3 represents a side view of the arm detached from the standard. Fig. 4 represents a section on line 4 4 of Fig. 1.

The same characters of reference indicate the same parts in all the figures.

In the drawin s, 12 represents a standard,

. which is adapte to be detachably secured in a vertical position to a suitable su port, such as a shelf or table-top a, the sai means, as here shown, com rising an car 13, formed on the standard and adapted to bear on the up per side of the table a, an car 14, formed on the standard below the ear l3, and a clamping-scrcw 15, en aged with a threaded socket in the car 14 and having a ti 16, adapted to bear on the under side of the table a. By the described means the standard is ada ted to be readily applied to and removed ii'om The upper end of the standard 12 is formed to overhang the table, as shown in 17 represents an arm which is ada ted to be detachably and ad'ustably secure to the upper end of the stan ard 12. The arm 17 is )rovided with means for engaging and holdmg the frame or handle portion 18 of an eggbeater, the said means comprisin seats 19, formed on the ends of branches of t e arm 17, said seats being recessed, as shown in Fig. 4, and clamps 20, recessed-to correspond to the seats 19, the said seats and clamps having ears which are connected by bolts 21, having heads 22 and nuts 23. Portions of the eggbeater frame are interposed between the seats and clamps and are securely confined by the bolts and nuts.

The preferred means for connecting the arm 17 with the standard 12 com rises a ivoted bolt 24, inserted in coinci ing ori ces formed for its reception in the meeting ends of the standard and arm, said bolt having a head 25 at one end and a thumb-nut 26 at the other end. When the nut is removed, the arm 17 and the egg-beater attached thereto can be readily removed from the standard, and when the nut is ti htened the arm and egg-beater are secured mly to the standard. It will be observed that the arm is adapted to swing upon the bolt 24, so that the egg-beater may stand vertically or at any desired inclination. The beater-blades are thus enabled to be sup orted at various heights above the bottom 0? the bowl 28, so that they may act upon the entire body of material contained in the bowl or only upon the'upper portion of the material, as the operator may desire. To

ositively look the arm and egg-beater in diferent positions, I rovide the meeting ends of the standard and arm with complemental clutch members, which, as here shown, comprise radiating ribs 29, formed on the arm, and corres ondin radiatin grooves 30, formed in t e stan ard, the ri is being adapted to enter the grooves, and thus cooperate with the bolt 2a and thumb-nut 26 in rigidly locking the arm to the standard.

Iclaim- An egg-beater holder comprising a standard havm means for enga ement with a table or she f, an arm joints to the standard and having means for detachable engagement with the frame of an egg-beater, and ineans for detachably securing the arm to the standard in different inclined positions, relatively to the standard whereby an eggbea'ter en aged with the arm may be supported at Eli erent heights.

In testimony whereof I have ailixed my me signature in 1presence of witnesses.
